Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts

Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts are prized in the industrial and manufacturing sectors for their high strength, corrosion resistance, and conductivity. To create such a durable product, Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts include a unique mix of metals which includes copper (97-98%) along with varying amounts of silicon (1.7-2.3%), manganese (0.2-0.8%), iron (0.35%) zinc (≤ 0.35%) and lead (≤ 0.1%). With its combination of copper with silicon and other metals in this exact ratio, Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts are capable of performing remarkably in many different applications involving extreme temperatures or corrosive elements where other nuts could fail.

C65500 Silicon Bronze Nuts provide excellent resistance to corrosion and are commonly used in outdoor installations such as roofing, marine, and architectural applications. The alloys used in producing Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts also have good oxidation characteristics, allowing them to resist tarnishing and discoloration thanks to exposure to the elements. In addition, they also feature great electrical conductivity and are not attracted to magnets. This makes them the preferred choice in a variety of applications, such as power equipment and electrical terminals. Fastener makers often use Silicon Bronze C65500 Nuts as highly reliable lock nuts because of their high tensile strength and excellent sealing capabilities due to their inherent galling properties.
